Sean Roberts Biography

Sean took to Jiu Jitsu immediately and soon became known on the competition circuit. At the time Sean was competing there were very few teens his age to compete against so he was competing against adults in most tournaments and beating them. Sean quickly started collecting gold medals from the many tournaments he competed in and has continued to excel since then.  Sean had made many trips up north to visit Ralph Gracie, and in 2009, he moved to San Francisco as a purple belt to train under Ralph.  Sean started training at Ralph Gracie San Francisco under Ralph and black belt Kurt Osiander where he continued to compete in most every tournament and became even more known in the jiu jitsu community. It was during that time that Sean was asked to fly to Maryland to compete in The BJJ Kumite against 12 of the best brown belts from around the world where he came in 2nd place in the gi portion. This was shown as a reality series on YouTube, and Sean became one of the most recognized brown belts in the world. He was given his Black Belt by Ralph Gracie in March of 2013. He moved to Chino Hills to teach in September of 2013.  Sean has competed in over 200 tournaments throughout his nine years of training.
